And a comment on Time Machine -- it's not a great primary way to back up your boot/system drive. A utility like Carbon Copy Cloner is a much better way for most of us to work, as it gives you instant boot recovery from problems using an external clone drive. Time Machine can be OK for backup of general user documents and maybe sessions.

I guess I did not realize that Dropbox ran when not in use. I use it for basic sharing of files. Sounds, though, like not noxious unless active.
I had ignored Time Machine for years until a local fellow recordist got me back into it. I can ignore it again and go with CCC, no prob. Tell me your favorite drive for that?
And THANK YOU for the PT prefs app! What a small stroke o helpful genius. Now if someone would create an Automator script or software to adjust settings, toggle things off/on to set up for PT sessions...
